Speak to the network provider. They can override anything for that number.

Your issue will be wifi connections.

If you really worry that much, then why give them a device with wi-fi?

Surely education is much better than restrictions, which will only lead to the user bypassing your controls, or worse using a non restricted device you dont know about.
